About the Charity

Five years ago, three people joined forces to bring one dog from Georgia, where he was just about to be euthanized, to DC, where he was adopted into a loving home within a week. More than 2,500 dogs and 200 cats later, City Dogs Rescue is known as the place to go when pet adoption is in view. Here’s why. Working closely with high-kill shelters in rural communities with few resources, City Dogs finds at-risk adoptable dogs and cats and saves their lives. Once a dog or cat is identified, a vast network of Facebook supporters (46,000+) raises funds for transportation to DC and for top-quality medical care, vaccinations, and spay/neutering procedures. The pet has the companionship of a trained foster care provider until a permanent home is found – usually thanks to social media campaigns, dynamic adoption events, or the popular volunteer dog-walking program (for which dogs wear stylish “adopt me!” vests). The demand for rescue services is huge – and so are the rewards. Your support saves a pet's life and brings unconditional love into a home today.
